Customers are saying

Customers admire the Roam Smart Portable Speaker's amazing sound quality, portability, and surprisingly big sound for its small size. Many appreciate its ease of setup and Bluetooth connectivity, along with its water resistance for use in various settings. However, some users point to inconsistent battery life and occasionally low volume as drawbacks. A few also mention challenges with charging and the power button.

    Sonos Speakers are great. I started with sonos one in the living room as an airplay speaker. 10 month later i have a whole house in sonos. The Alexa capability, Airplay and sound make this an amazing speaker set. Now the Sonos Roam is portable and easy to use. The sound is amazing. I recommend this to anyone

    Loved this speaker so much that we bought a second one so that we can listen in stereo when we are outside. Just like our other Sonos speakers, the sound is great and the functionality of the app is excellent. This is our 7th Sonos purchase.

    The sound is great, my main problem is that you have to be super cautious when you turn it off. It's almost impossible to tell if it's of and many times the battery is dead. It also ttys to make you use the sonos app in order to use it. On Bluetooth it was a third party app I had to Google the information as to how to use it on my bluetooth for my phone. The app was annoying and didn't let me use my Amazon music playlists . If you do buy it don't waste your time with the app just connect your phone via Bluetooth.

    Original purchased in store. Not as impressive as floor display seemed. Volume seemed to never be anything louder than iPhone speaker volume. Then one day it just quit working all together after 3 weeks of having it. Returned to store for replacement over a month ago and still waiting on the replacement that I have not received. Hoping the replacement is better and it was an isolated issue with the original one i purchased.

    This little speaker has a great battery life and puts out some serious sound! Love that Alexa is built in so I can switch songs while I’m in the pool. Haven’t got it wet yet but glad that I don’t have to worry about it getting splashed since it’s waterproof.

    I've bought three of these, so I must like them. The good: The size-It's very portable and I like the way you can stand it up or set it on it's side. Wifi: I like how it just jumps on your network when you get home. You can set it up in the shower, the back porch, the garage...anywhere your network will reach. So what? At home it's not a bluetooth connection, so you can play music uninterrupted. Battery power: Not good or bad. Just average battery use and it depends on how loud you're playing, obviously. The Bad: Sometimes the software gets wanky, but only when I'm off my network

    Overall, a great portable speaker. sound is full, has decent bass, and volume level is good for outdoor use. I wish battery life was a bit longer.

    I was looking to clean up my office desk space and also looking for a good sounding and good looking speaker. Well I am very happy with the overall performance and looks of the Roam speaker. It was quick and easy to setup and intergrade into my sonos infrastructure.

    Have not had this long and it is losing connection and won't even go into repairing mode, regardless of how many times I try holding down the power button. The location of the power button, which is the only button on the device that is responsible for a multitude of functions, is completely awkward to get to every time you need to power the device on. The only reason it didn't \get 1 star is because the sound quality is pretty good.

    This is a great little speaker. If you are already in the Sonos ecosystem then this is a great addition. We add it into playback with our other speakers and then take it when we go camping. Sounds great and is a perfect size. We gifted one to a friend then had to go get our own!

    Really good little speaker. You need to know that you have to have a Sonos system running the s2 app in order to use it, even as a Bluetooth speaker. Also need an iPad charger to get it to charge, not enough watts in an iPhone charger. Once up and running it sounds really good considering how small it is.

    Great product, little difficulty with connecting at first, but once connected ease of movement and sound quality were what I expected. Easily pairs with other Sonos speakers.

    Love the Roam! Great sound for its size, and easy to move around. We have 2 Roams now. Instructions are not great, but once you get them paired/ wi/fi it's all good!
